A lot of the issues with who in power knew what and when have come with skepticism. If you haven't yet, read our Gary Parrish on all that was wrong with the reasonings offered by Ducks coach Dana Altman at his explanatory press conference last Friday.

With all the disparagement against the school, Oregon on Tuesday released a timeline of the events. The account below is the school's latest explanation for why the players named in the explicit police report continued to play in games despite an ongoing investigation.

And as a reminder, Altman's said he did not know of -- nor did he seek to find -- the nature of the case or who was involved in it on his team when he first learned of an investigation.

"This timeline does not provide specifics on any outreach and services provided, out of respect for student privacy and the need to maintain confidentiality around many specifics," the school states.

According to Oregon, the school president learned of who was involved in the case eight days after the alleged incidents in the police report happened. And per Oregon, Eugene Police asked the school not to discipline players at that time out of consideration for the ongoing investigation. Because of that, school president Michael Gottfredson witheld the names from Oregon's athletic director and Altman.

Per this timeline, it is unclear when Altman truly first learned who was involved in the alleged matter. What we do know: The timeline -- and Altlman last week -- reveals Altman did not know the full details of the case until April 30, when he read the police report. This came 16 days after it was determined charges would not be filed in the case.

Oregon made its request eight days after the District Attorney dropped the case.
